Er, what? I've installed several Debian unstable machines and every one
of them has ended up with font problems. Usually X won't start,
complaining about a missing 'fixed' font.
As far as I can tell, the font packages in X are broken and always have
been broken.
The font packages in unstable are the ones that seem broken and have been
for at least two months.
If I upgrade them, Gnome starts up but instead of seeing alphanumeric
characters on the panel (and also on some apps), I see boxes that are made
up of dots.
